SUMMARY:2022 Data and Evaluation Training Series #1: Data Basics
DESCRIPTION:Given limited resources and stretched capacity\, data collection procedures and program evaluation strategies at the individual program level often fall short in terms of identifying gaps in service\, areas for growth\, and program impact. Today\, philanthropic giving demands quantifiable return on investment in exchange for donations and grants. Combining nearly 20 years of experience in designing bereavement-focused evaluation protocols with the power of the CBEM\, with philanthropic support provided by the New York Life Foundation and in collaboration with the National Alliance for Children’s Grief (NACG)\, Judi’s House/JAG Institute offers a series of free trainings to share best practices in data collection and program evaluation. \nThis first workshop on Data Basics will outline where to start with essential data capture for process evaluation and highlight how organizations can capitalize on what they may already be collecting as well as what community data are available. Presenters will discuss the role of data in the childhood bereavement field\, review data fundamentals (e.g.\, types and sources of data) using accessible examples\, and provide tips on how to start strong with data gathering to help tell your story. \n\n\n \nBecome a NACG member today!
